Cork indie legends The Frank and Walters are all set to make a welcome return to the Oriel Centre at Dundalk Gaol on Saturday 7th February.
Paul of the Frank and Walters has said that The Oriel Centre is one of his favourite places to perform and going by past performances in the Oriel Centre from them it's easy to see why. The intimacy of the venue allows for a magical bond between the audience and the performers.
The Frank and Walters originally became world famous on the ‘90s indie scene and have produced seven studio albums. Thanks to the cult comedy show ‘The Young Offenders’, the band captured a whole new audience when their hit single ‘After All’ featured in the infamous ‘Billy Murphy’ bus hijack scene.
With a back catalogue of hundreds of songs penned over three decades, the band play all the favourites and some long-lost classics in all their acoustic glory. Expect to hear hits such as ‘After All’ and ‘Fashion crisis hits New York’ coupled with timeless classics like ‘How can I exist’ and ‘Landslide’. 
Tickets for this show are nearly all sold out with fans travelling from all over the country to  experience this acoustic performance.  Tickets are available from www.orielcentre.ie or from the Oriel Centre reception.
